Project Based Learning PD

Project-based learning (PBL) is a student-centered teaching method where students gain knowledge and skills by working for an extended period of time to investigate and respond to an authentic question or problem. Key characteristics of PBL include being student-centered, encouraging self-learning through real-world problems, supporting content learning while developing critical thinking and problem-solving skills through collaborative learning, creativity, and communication. Technology tools can enhance PBL by allowing students to better present, communicate, store information, and demonstrate their learning, while also supporting formative assessment and helping teachers access student data. Experts generally agree that PBL makes schoolwork more connected to the real world and engaging for today's students.
